Dear Robert ,
I am trying to download the HiJackThis through hijackthis.eu or through trendsecure.com , using Mozilla or IE , and getting my NAV out of the way but it keep on saying : “this download has been blocked by your Security Zone Policy” .
I feel really stupid , but any suggestion ??? ;(
Comments by Nicolas - March 10th, 2009 at 5:21 pm
Nicolas, is possible that a trojan is blocking you from access some security websites, try to download HiJackThis from this link:
http://download.hijackthis.eu/HJTInstall.exe
Let me know if it work for you
Comments by Robert - March 11th, 2009 at 1:37 am
I tried the above link but with no success . Still the same blocking :
: “this download has been blocked by your Security Zone Policy” .
After a full scan with NAV , nothing was found .
anything else that I should try ?
Thank you already for the support and the help .
Comments by Nicolas - March 11th, 2009 at 10:47 am
Try to boot windows in safe mode (press F8 when pc start) and enable safe mode with network support, then try to download HiJackThis from the link I posted in my last comment, it should work : )

Nicolas, you are infected by other trojans, these files are very suspicious:
C:\windows\pp2.exe
C:\windows\ld02.exe
C:\WINDOWS\system32\dll32.dll
And these other files are little suspicious:
C:\WINDOWS\SM1BG.EXE
C:\WINDOWS\system32\nvsvc32.exe
Can you scan all of them here:
http://scanner.novirusthanks.org/
And paste here only the files that are detected ?
If you cannot find the files, boot windows in safe mode with network support : )
Comments by Robert - March 11th, 2009 at 7:02 pm
I have on my computer an alert that tells me I have a blocked program and it is the av360 virus. I did not run it but I see the file in my C:/Program files/a360. It is also listed on the start up menu. I checked my registry and did not find the files it is supposed to create if it is installed and it is not listed in the add/remove programs list. What do I do?

@Nicolas, perfect, delete these files manually (be sure to boot windows in safe mode before delete them):
C:\windows\pp2.exe
C:\windows\ld02.exe
C:\WINDOWS\system32\dll32.dll
Then delete these registry keys (open regedit.exe and search for the keys below):
O4 – HKLM\..\Run: [sysldtray] C:\windows\ld02.exe
O4 – HKLM\..\Run: [pp] C:\windows\pp2.exe
O4 – HKCU\..\Run: [dll] rundll32 dll32,sm
After, open and update NVT Malware Remover and type a full system scan (if it detects viruses paste here the logs). After, restart your Computer and do a new HiJackThis scan and paste here the logs.
@Felicia, download this program: http://download.hijackthis.eu/HJTInstall.exe and do a system scan, then paste here the logs : )

Robert,
My daughters computer is infected by the A360 virus, I downloaded the NVT Rogue Software Remover and scan the computer, I received the “Error on Remove” note. What should I do next?
Comments by Rich - March 13th, 2009 at 1:55 am
Hi Rich,
to remove Antivirus 360 follow these steps:
Download, Install and Update NVT Malware Remover Tool then scan your computer and remove infected files found.
Let me know if it worked fine for you.

Hi Darren,
delete this file:
C:\Program Files\A360\av360.exe
and delete this registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\
“AE7A2824BE1EB98FBAAFB44EBD5702DB”
after, restart your pc, and check if Antivirus 360 is still running in your system, if you notice other problems with the pc just post here
Comments by Robert - March 15th, 2009 at 12:20 am
I had the A360 program begin it’s “work” on my pc today. I did all I could to stop it from doing what it wanted to do. SpySweeper would open automatically and tell me all was OK. When I did a full scan Spy Sweeper found the A360 pragram as adware and removed it. A360 was removed except for the desktop icon which was unesable so I deleted it.
Comments by Steve - March 15th, 2009 at 3:18 am
okay I installed that program and in under 5 minutes it found antivirus 360, how do i remove it though???

mandy, right click of the mouse over the detected file and select “Delete selected file”
Comments by Robert - March 16th, 2009 at 12:58 pm
I used your program to rid my system of the A360 virus and all seems well I do not get the pop-ups or the subscription info. But now when I am on the internet and type in a search for specific site and then select the site from the search listing my computer automatically re-directs itself to some other site. For example, I type in a search for plumbing hardware select one of the listed sites and my computer gives me a Swifter mop page. ????? What do you thnik is the problem?

Hi Paul,
is possible that you are infected by a BHO (Browser Helper Object), try to do this:
with NVT Malware Remover Tool click on “Settings”, then enable the option “Clear BHOs (Browser Helper Objects)” and then re-click on “Scan Button” to re-scan your pc.
After, restart your PC and try to do again a search and let me know if now is all fine.
Anyway, you can also post a log of HiJackThis just so we can analyze the logs and we can let you know if you need to remove other possible malicious files.
